This is the one day in the year when thoughts turn to
romance,
gifts and spending time with that special person in your life.
A new
survey by makefriendsonline.com reveals that the majority of us are too tired or busy to follow old traditions like
Valentines Day .
Out of the 8,500 people surveyed, 60 per cent probably wouldn’t make love with their partner because its Valentine’s Day compared to any other day of the year. As people gain responsibilities this percentage is likely to increase.
Other facts the survey revealed:
• For people aged between 18-24 years 50 per cent expected to make love to their partners on Valentine’s Day, but on 37 per cent still felt this in their mid 30’s.
• It was mostly men, 43 per cent, who were hopeful of a night of passion compared to only 36 per cent of women feeling the same way.
• Out of all the star-signs in the
zodiac, Leo’s would be the most likely to make love on Valentines but an Aquarian is the most likely to have a headache.
• Ealing is the sexiest area in the UK with 66 per cent of the residents anticipating some Valentine’s loving.
• In Sutton only 11 per cent of the residents will be expecting to celebrate with more than
flowers on Valentine’s.
Martine Bysh, MD of Makefriendsonline said, ‘I think it’s inevitable that passion will wane when people have the worries of
mortgages, children and a looming
recession . But lets hope this survey will serve as a little reminder that we need to put time aside for our partners too’
